Hi Matthias, as far as RFCs are concerned, your observation seems valid.
RFC 951 section 3 (Packet Format) requires the boot file name (as provided by option dhcp-boot) to be a null terminated string. RFC 2132 section 9.4 ff.(TFTP server name and Bootfile name) define the respective parameters as a string of characters. RFC 2132 section 2 (BOOTP Extension/DHCP Option Field Format) allows usage of null terminated strings and further obligates clients to be able to deal with strings regardless if they are null terminated or not. Kind regards, Buck _______________________________________________ Dnsmasq-discuss mailing list Dnsmasq-discuss@lists.thekelleys.org.uk https://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dnsmasq-discuss
